isitworthit Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 i am a beginer to forums, and minidisc usage (or rather, i have made a few recordings using a MD player and nothing more) so your help would be appreciated. I want to transfer the recordings i have made (on my nh1) to my PC but i gather from what i have read thus far that it may not be - or is not - possible since these recordings - whilst recorded using a Hi-MD enabled device - were recorded onto netMD discs and it this that is causing me the problem. The message i am getting from sonic stage is:"Unable to transfer the following tracks to My Library because they are recordedby Net MD or another computer".in the help section i am told that: "The following tracks on a Net MD (marked with ) may not be able to be transferred back to My Library on your computer: Tracks transferred from another computer Tracks recorded using a device other than a computer (for example, an MD deck)".What - if anything must i do?

sfbp Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 There is only one way that I know around this. Get an MDLP deck that has optical out such as the MDS-JE640 or JE780 or JB980. You can then play back at x1 into the optical (Toslink) input on your computer sound card, presupposing that you have one. But Sony never said you could actually upload recorded NetMD tracks using USB. You can't.Otherwise, they got you good.Note, that you can record HiMD format onto a "std" disk in your NH1. This can, I think be uploaded if it is anything other than a download from PC. Putting recordings in NetMD format using Sonic Stage is what got you to where you are. However if you are making microphone, analog or digital line in recordings with the NH1, you must record to one of the HiMD formats if you want to upload the result. Otherwise you need an MZ-RH1, the only portable allowing upload of pre-HiMD tracks.Clear as mud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitworthit Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 by MDLP deck i suppose you mean a large desktop video player size thing? well i probably would get one - temp. No Sony never did but the occasional logic might make one conclude otherwise. i prefer intuition and a helping hand as guide to some things. 99.9 billion turnover ain't bad though. didn't record via sonic stage but direct from mic but i don't expect that changes anything...as clear as it's going to get - thanks.

Syrius Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) MDLP=MiniDisc Long Play.If you recorded from Mic, then you can only upload using an RH1. Edited March 14, 2009 by Syrius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitworthit Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) thats how far removed i am from competence but i tell you what, this forum talk is a million times better then popping into shops and asking questions all the time. Invariably i get the wrong answers anyway...rh1 then - and more gear but at least it's small gear and good gear. I liked your reply to the classified! thanks.

sfbp Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 NO - you can play back out of an MDLP deck (Syrius you're not listening!) if you don't want to buy an RH1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
